Youth football camp planned by championship team

The McCook High School Bison football team will host the first Championship Football Camp Monday through Thursday from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. each day.

The camp will feature many of the players who helped McCook win the 2003 Class B State Football Championship.

This camp is designed for grades 2-8 (fall 2003).

Boys and girls are welcome. Cost is $20 and registrations will be accepted until camp starts.

McCook head football coach Jeff Gross and some of the McCook Bison championship staff will run the camp.

In addition, many of the current and past Bison players will be there making this a fun experience.

Gross and his staff would like to give the youth of the area an introduction and understanding to McCook Bison Football.

The current and past players take pride in their program and they would like to pass this on to the next generation of football players.

McCook Bison Football operated on one main philosophy: "We Are One."

This is a non-contact camp. All campers will be taught beginning fundamentals of playing football.

Skills taught include passing, receiving, running, cutting, punting, kicking, blocking and tackling. No equipment is necessary. Cleats are not needed.

All campers will receive instruction and a camp football.

What is needed: Shorts or sweatpants, T-shirt, shoes (cleats or shoes).

Registration is open until Monday and will also be conducted Monday at the camp.
